STE-3600 System Identification - 5 ECTS
Admission requirements
To be applicable for the single course the qualification is the same as for the master program in Aerospace Control Engineering (Satellite Engineering). You must have a relevant undergraduate bachelor in engineering, primarily within electronics or space technology, but it may also be within related fields such as automatic control, communications, power electronics or computer science. You must however have a sufficient background in electronics and communications.
There is also a requirement of minimum 25 credits mathematics, 5 credits statistics, 7,5 credits physics
Application code: 9371

Assessment
Mandatory hand-in assignments: The number will be disclosed at the start of the course.
3 hour written exam. Assessment according to standard A-F grading scale where F is a fail.
Allowed examination aids: Calculator
Access to the continuation-exams are given to students that have unable to pass the most recent written ordinary exam in this subject. If the student has their assignments approved, then only the exam is required and the mandatory hand-in assignments are seen as approved. There is no resit option for the mandatory hand-in assignments.
